What Does a Fractional CMO Actually Do?
Hi, I’m Daniel Elliott. If you’ve visited my agency site, you might assume I only direct other people’s work. I can lead teams, I’ve done it for years—but it may surprise you that I’m the person doing the work.
Here’s how it works.
I research the market, investigate competitors,and I identify the ideal customers. And from there, build the strategy, develop the positioning, and work through collateral needs, budgets and forecasts. Then I write the copy, design the assets, shoot and edit the video build the website, landing pages and social media outreach and weave it all together in the campaign.
I also have my own production studio, where I shoot, present, and edit the video or live stream myself.
That combination means I can set direction and move an idea all the way to a finished asset. Below this video are 4 links, click on them to see the finished products. Above the video is a link to call me. Let’s get in touch. Thanks for watching.

Paying too much for too little, is nothing to be proud of.
Youtube, Vimeo, Facebook have all made video a mainstay of marketing impact. It’s no longer too expensive, too complex or too much trouble. What once was the stuff of kings, is now in the hands of anyone. Anyone with decades of experience in broadcast news, National Ad campaigns, graphic design, audio production, live events, corporate infomercial production and, yea, the technology, cameras, lights and audio. Good thing we’ve got all those, and better for you that we can provide them.
A professional product review video can propel your sales and customer support better than any other media.
It's all about people, and video gives you the advantage of promotion of your team, their role in your business and their commitments.
Instead of one presentation, your videos can stream to your entire customer list, reach new customers and link to your website for streaming.
Research shows there's nothing like video to drive social media referrals and create click conversion.

Is Elated Dallas Worth It? A Complete Platform Breakdown
ApptureDigitalMedia ~ 855-GET-BIZZ November 4, 2026 3:40 pm
Welcome to Elated Dallas: the invitation-only marketplace for Texas talent, backed by a full photo, video and recording studio right here in Dallas. Let's take a quick tour.
The homepage gets right to the point. Are you booking talent, or getting booked? Buyers and performers each get their own path. Below that, you'll see all seven talent categories, the four-step booking process, and the four Texas markets we serve: Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, Houston and San Antonio.
Everything is one click away in the main menu. Booking, Artists, Studio, Pricing, Join, Markets and Events, each with organized drop-downs.
**0:42 — Book Talent**
Buyers get pages built for how they actually book. Bars and nightclubs, corporate events, weddings, hotels and restaurants, and casting agencies each get tailored talent picks, a clear process, and answers to common questions.
**0:55 — Find Talent**
Find Talent is the heart of the marketplace. Search by talent type, more than sixty music types, city, or keyword. Pick Rock Band, hit Find Talent, and matching acts appear instantly.
**1:09 — Talent Profile (Radio Edit)**
Every act gets a rich public profile: photos, music styles, performance areas, video, social links, and a direct contact form, so buyers know exactly what they're booking.
**1:21 — Band Types**
Not sure what you need? The Band Types directory organizes sixty-three styles into ten groups, from party and wedding bands to Texas Red Dirt, Tejano and mariachi.
**1:32 — Post a Gig**
Or skip the search. Post a gig in about two minutes with your date, venue, audience and budget, and matching talent gets alerted by text and email.
**1:41 — How It Works / VIP Artist Pass**
For performers, Elated is all about getting gigs sent to you. The VIP Artist Pass gives invited talent ninety days of full access, with gig alerts, profile views and shortlist counts. After that, you only pay dues when you actually book.
**1:57 — Pricing**
And pricing is published, not hidden. Membership, photography, 4K video reels, live sound and lighting, artist websites, space rental and crew, all with clear starting prices on one page.
**2:11 — Studio**
Now the part that sets Elated apart: the studio. A concert stage, green screen sets, a podcast set, a recording control room and vocal booth, all under one roof in Dallas.
**2:24 — Recording Studio / Video Production / Photography**
Record a demo in the thirty-two track recording suite and hear the results right on the page. Film a 4K performance reel or music video with multiple cameras. Or book headshots and band promo photos made to sell your act.

Elated even builds your marketing. Choose from twelve artist website designs, and grow your YouTube channel with strategy, thumbnails, Shorts and search-ready packaging.
